In that instant, everyone could feel the air in the meeting room going downhill.
The employee that came to pass the message was about to be turned into stone from Edgar's cold and irrepressible rage.
If it weren't for Miles smoothing things over, everyone would have been in for a disaster.
"Mr.Royden, I'll take a look at the situation."
Edgar furrowed his brows and raised his hand.
Miles walked out.
"What's going on?"
"Ms.Xena has arranged for a reporter from the city's television station, and they said they want to interview the key leaders of our company.It's also about last year's charitable investment in the new housing development.Ms.Xena's assistant said that Mr.Royden knew about this, so..."
They took it as the truth.
They didn't imagine that Edgar was utterly in the dark.
What was going on? Acting first and reporting later? Xena had quite the nerve.
It was no different from playing with fire.
"But those from the city's television station are here.We can't chase them away"
The employee was in a difficult position.
"Save us, Miles"
Miles furrowed his brows and turned around to take a look.He saw Rachel walking out.
Before he could say anything, Rachel said, "Ms.Eyer will be there.Make your arrangements"
Miles' eyes lit up.
Rachel, who was before him, was his shining lady luck! "Don't look at him with such an expression.I'm not a mind reader.I'm only doing my job and reporting big and small company matters to Ms.Eyer"
They wanted to make Royden Group a turbulent place at all costs! Didn't Edbert want to take the company back? Then they would leave him with an incohesive company that Jean was tired of.
The sort that would scatter when the wind blew.
Half an hour later, the reporter from the city's television station was slightly impatient from waiting.
"When is Mr.Royden coming, Ms.Xena?"
The reporter asked again.
They started complaining secretly when they saw that Ms.
Xena was a young girl who had just graduated.
Still, when they thought about how she was the cream of the Royden Group, they felt that her abilities might be outstanding.But after talking to her for a while, they realized it wasn't the case.
Even though Xena had majored in such an area, she didn't have much practical experience in the workplace.She spoke weakly, and it seemed her heart wasn't even in today's interview.
Such a scene couldn't be aired in any part of the news.
Xena's fingers were interlocked, and she suddenly raised her head when she heard someone calling her.Her eyes were lacking spirit, and she looked like she was losing her head out of fear.She had forgotten her manners.
Her heart thumped, and she kept thinking about what to do if Edgar didn't show up.
Faced with the reporter's queries, she stuttered and couldn't say a word.
At this time, the door opened.
Jean walked in curtly with low heels.
Not only did she take the initiative to greet the reporters, but she also brought snacks and coffee for them.
"Thank you for your trouble.I want to discuss the general content for the interview..."
All her conduct and speech were natural and unrestrained.
The tailored skirt she had on was elegant and beautiful.
She gave others the feeling of being an elite woman in the workplace.
As they briefly discussed the interview content, the photographer took some photographs of her at a good angle as he tested the lighting.
It was good enough to be featured in a fashion magazine! The photographer took a few more shots.
No one talked to Xena while that was happening.
She tried to join in several times but failed.
The scene was indescribable.
Even the photographer couldn't help but exclude her from the frame, and Xena wasn't a conversationalist.
Even her demeanor pulled down the appeal of the interview.
"Should we officially start now, Ms.Eyer?"
The reporter confirmed one last time and signaled her colleague behind her.
"Can I include a personal question? You should know that it's hard to be public media.We need some simple.."
The reporter hesitated as she thought about how to word it.
Jean smiled indifferently.
"Yes."
She could easily imagine what they wanted to ask her.It was undoubtedly related to Edgar.
There was nothing she couldn't say.
Since she decided to join Royden Group, her revenge plan had been set in motion, and Edgar was one of the most important links.
There was nowhere to hide.
Seeing Jean put down her coffee cup, Xena imitated her, but she didn't know she wasn't in the frame.
Xena had invited them to show off her position in the company.
This was what Edbert had taught her.
She needed to stand steadily on her own two feet as soon as possible before getting a few projects for the company in the next quarter.
That way, the directors would praise her more.
And including Edgar in the interview was to create a better topic of discussion.
After all, Edgar was an acclaimed genius in the business world.
With him to shelter her from the wind and rain, Xena only needed to smile at the side.
Others would then think that she also had an innate ability as the daughter of the Royden family.
But she watched as her plan was wrecked.
Jean answered perfectly and flawlessly as she faced the reporters’ questions.
"Ms.Eyer, can you tell us in detail about Royden Group's acquisition of Eyer Group? How did you suddenly think of selling the company in such a way?"
"I can only say that this is one of the business models for a strong alliance.It can't be said that Eyer Group has disappeared.We are going to go further"
Royden Group hadn't overpowered Eyer Group.
Instead, they used Royden Group's resources and networks to strengthen their power.
"Perhaps there will be changes one day in the future.It's not certain."
Jean smiled sincerely, and no one could guess what she was thinking.
At this time, the photographer received a signal from the reporter, and he cleverly zoomed in on Jean's face.
Even under such a high-definition camera, her face was still perfect. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
She was comparable to a celebrity.
At this time, an additional tall figure appeared at the door.
His gaze was fixed on Jean's face, and there was a rare gentleness.
"Finally, let me ask you a private question.After your last marriage ended, have you found a suitable partner recently? Or do you have any expectations for future marriage?"
The reporter didn't have the nerve to ask her bluntly.
She was afraid that the question wouldn't be interesting.
If Jean magnanimously admitted that she had reconciled with Edgar, then the acquisition of her company was only an internal operation.
If Jean's reply had nothing to do with Edgar, then future news about Royden Group would be interesting.
As soon as the reporter asked the question, Jean raised her brows slightly and deliberately hesitated.
It allowed Xena to blab.
"Let me answer such a private question on her behalf, Ms.Reyes."
Xena immediately held onto Jean's wrist, making it seem like they were very close.
This made the distance between the two closer, and the photographer could not cut off her hand from the frame.
He could only include Xena's face.
Xena turned her head sideways and asked Jean, "I can Say it, can't I, Jean?"
Jean's expression darkened slightly, but she said, "Go ahead."
She wanted to see what Xena would say.
Xena turned and said to the camera, "Jean is such a capable and independent woman.She got pregnant without a husband at a time like this.Jean doesn't need a partner.She has been pregnant for three months but still maintains her figure.Isn't it obvious?"
